SUMMER INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
1. INTRODUCTION
The Summer Internship Program (SIP) forms an important component of education at
IBS. It is an attempt to bridge the gap in the student’s perception between theory in
books and practice in the corporate world. Under this, students undertake a 14 week SIP
at any organization/company during the intervening period between close of Semester II
and commencement of Semester III.
SIP carries a weightage of 18 credits, which is normally equivalent to six courses. The
SIP, which would be a simulation of real work environment, requires students to
undergo the rigor of professional environment both in form and substance. It exposes
them to technical skills and also helps them to acquire social skills by drawing them into
contact with real professionals.
However, under the given circumstances some of the students might have to do SIP
from their residence for the project given by the company under the constant
guidance of Faculty Guide and Company Guide (wherever possible).
Objective
SIP is a vehicle for introducing students to real-life situation, which cannot be simulated
in the classroom. Therefore, SIP assignments must necessarily be those of direct interest
to the host organization. Students are encouraged to take up time bound multi-
disciplinary and goal-oriented assignment involving team work. Solutions to various
problems confronted in the assignment might be open-ended, involving an element of
analytical thinking, processing and decision-making in the face of insufficient data
parameters and uncertain situations. Students are advised to read the contents of the
handbook carefully prior to commencement of SIP.
2. SIP at Parent IBS Campus
Students who wish to pursue SIP at parent campus need to register at parent
campus either physically or through On-Line (by visiting the SIS portal).
1
Non-Submission of acceptance letter from the SIP organization.
Students having fee dues.
4. REGISTRATION
Registration is a mandatory reporting of the student at IBS Campus for undertaking SIP.
Registration to SIP-2021 will take place at IBS Campuses on 15 th February, 2021. All
students must positively report to the IBS Campus on 15th February, 2021, pay
3rd instalment of Program fee and register for SIP by filling up the registration card. A
written acceptance from the organization will be attached to the SIP registration card.
The students will report at their SIP Organizations only after completing the
registration formalities.
If registration is not physically possible, the student may be asked to register for
SIP On-Line by accessing SIS (Student Information System) through
www.ibsindia.org Website. The nominated Faculty Guide shall guide the student
for On-Line registration
4.1 At Parent Campus
The student undertaking SIP at the parent Campus will register at their respective parent
Campus.
4.2 At Other IBS Campus
The students, whose request for doing SIP at other IBS Campuses is approved, will not be
allowed to register for SIP without payment of 3rd instalment of program fee.
Non-Registering at other IBS Campus will lead to declaration of student as No Show
Case leading to DP (Discontinued from Program).
4.3 At other Cities
The students undertaking SIP at city other than IBS Campus in India will register for the
SIP On-Line through SIS.

5. FACULTY GUIDE AND COMPANY GUIDE
Every student will be assigned a Faculty Guide at the beginning of SIP. The role of the
Faculty Guide is to enable the student to undertake a meaningful report, provide the
necessary academic guidance, and to facilitate evaluation, with the aid of the company
executives. The Faculty Guide would be involved at all stages of the SIP, beginning from
‘definition of the work content’ to SIP completion.
Every student works under the counsel of a Company Guide (wherever possible), who
supervises and evaluates the performance of the student at every stage of the SIP and
gives feedback to the Faculty Guide. It is the responsibility of the students to utilize the
knowledge and experience of the Company Guide (wherever possible) to complete SIP.
It is therefore necessary that the students interact with the Faculty Guide and
Company Guide regularly to update them about the progress and seek guidance on
doing SIP. The responsibility of contacting and interacting with the Faculty Guide
and Company Guide (wherever possible) rests with the students only. During these
interactions, the student would be informed about his/her performance, his/her
strengths and weaknesses, as observed through various evaluation components and also
ways for improvement. However, the student also has the responsibility to seek
clarification regularly from the respective Faculty Guide on these aspects.
In the absence of one to one interaction physically by the students, it is proposed
that the Faculty Guide will have a general Webinar with all the students under his
guidance once in a week and one to one interaction with the student through a
Webinar by the Faculty Guide once in a week. During these Webinars, students
can also interact with other Faculty Members of the Campus as Senior Faculty
members are going to participate in these Webinars along with the Faculty Guide
assigned to the student.
6. SIP COMPLETION
SIP will come to an end on 21st May, 2021.
On successful completion of the SIP, the student must collect a relieving letter and
“No Dues” Certificate from the SIP Organization.
3
The students during SIP are placed in the role of ambassadors of IBS. The Institute would
always expect students to maintain professional and social imprints of high standards in
the organization.
IBS expects the students to conform to the rules and regulations of the place of work
during SIP. It is particularly important to be regular, punctual and well-mannered at
work. During the period of SIP the student shall be subjected to the leave rules of the SIP
organization and should ensure strict adherence to the timings of the organization.
Unprofessional behaviour, misconduct, indiscipline, irregularity at work and
unsatisfactory performance will lead to cancellation of SIP or award of Not Cleared
report (NC). Consequently students will not be permitted to register in Semester III
resulting in the loss of at least one academic year besides any other form of
academic action IBS might deem fit to impose.
The student will indemnify, defend and hold IBS harmless from and against any and
all losses, damage, liability and expenses arising out of any third party claim,
actions or proceedings by him or by any agents, during the period of SIP.
Plagiarism
Presenting other’s work/material as one’s own is plagiarism. Plagiarism includes
reproducing others’ ideas, opinions, theories, graphics, language, quotes (written or
oral), facts, statistics and illustrative material, etc. without acknowledgement.
Plagiarism would result in academic action against students leading to:
i. In the first instance a written warning, and resubmission of the work/material
within a week.
ii. In second instance, no marks will be awarded for the evaluation component
8. EVALUATION
Evaluation is done at various stages of SIP by the Faculty Guide, Company Guide
(wherever possible) and SIP Committee.

8.2 Evaluation Process
The details of evaluation process are described in the following paragraphs. The Faculty
Guide and Company Guide will rate the performance of the student as per the applicable
parameters up to three stages of evaluation and the final stage evaluation will be done by
SIP Committee constituted at parent campus of the student.
Wherever Company Guide services are not available, the Faulty Guide alone does
the evaluation based on applicable parameters.
SIP Initial Information Report (IIR)
This report is to be submitted by the student as per the format given at Annexure-III.
Care must be taken to ensure that all information provided in this report is accurate.
The IIR is not a component of evaluation but it is mandatory and subsequent events are
executed on the basis of information provided in the IIR. Initial Information Report
Format is also provided in SIS (Student Information System). It is mandatory that every
student fills in this Form on-line by logging in to SIS. In addition, the physical copies of
IIR after taking printouts from SIS must be submitted to the allocated Faculty Guide and
the Company Guide.
Stage I: SIP Proposal Evaluation
The SIP Proposal must cover the following aspects:
i. Synopsis: A statement of about 1000 words describing what the SIP is about
(Identifying key issues related to the work assigned and key deliverables).
ii. Objective: Stating what the SIP will accomplish and the value-addition to the
organization. (Understanding of the work assigned)
iii. Limitations of the Study. (Understanding of the work assigned)
iv. Proposed Methodology. (Action Plan)
v. Schedule: A time frame indicating steps that will be required and the expected date
when they will be completed. (Action Plan)
Copies of SIP Proposal should be submitted as per the format given at Annexure-IV to
both Faculty Guide and Company Guide. This is mandatory.
6
The SIP proposal evaluation is carried out by Faculty Guide and Company Guides. The
details of evaluation parameters are given below.
Final marks of this stage are arrived at after averaging total marks given by both
Faculty Guide and Company Guide individually.
7
Stage-III: SIP Specific Evaluation
SIP Specific Evaluation is the precise evaluation of student’s learning outcomes
and experiences and is done by the Faculty Guide and Company Guide.
The details of evaluation parameters for SIP Specific Evaluation are given below:

9. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY REPORT
Executive Summary Report is a one-page summary of the SIP report required to be
submitted by the student along with the final report to the Faculty Guide. The format for
executive summary report is given at Annexure-VI. This report can be used by the
students with Resume for placement purpose. Students should take utmost care in
writing the report.
Further, the students are advised to retain a copy of this Executive Summary Report with
them for future use.
10. GRADING
The grading of SIP is done on the basis of marks obtained by the students in various
evaluation parameters. The Faculty Guide and Company guide will be awarding the
marks up to Stage III of SIP Evaluation and the Final Evaluation would be done by the SIP
Committee at parent Campus. The total marks given by Faculty Guide, Company Guide
and the SIP Committee will be considered for grading.
Award of Not Cleared Report: The following cases would be considered for awarding
“Not Cleared (NC) Report:”
a) The student who does not give opportunity for evaluating as per the evaluation
schedule would be awarded Not Cleared (NC) Report in SIP. These students would
be required to repeat SIP in next academic year when it is offered.
b) The students who are not able to complete the SIP within the schedule time period
will be awarded ‘NC’ Report.
9
Reports prepared by way of doing SIP could be of significant importance to the host
organization - in terms of their objective of “Technical Documentation” aiming at
updating or modernizing of information systems. Therefore, proper care should be
taken while documenting the report.
During SIP students are placed in the role of ambassadors of IBS. The students
are expected to maintain professional and social imprints of high standards in
the organization. Good behaviour and manners would help in nurturing a long-term
relationship with the organization, which could even translate into a placement
opportunity.
The students are advised to submit the report to the host organization for scrutiny
before submitting at the campus. This gives assurance to the host organization about
maintaining secrecy of confidential data.

Annexure-V
A SIP Report is a written presentation of the work done by the student on a given assignment. It
is important to bear in mind that even though the report is submitted only at the end of any
given assignment, in reality it is a culmination of continuous efforts on the part of the student.
Writing SIP Report: The SIP requires submission of a report on the SIP done by the student
not just to IBS but also to the organization where the student is undergoing his/her SIP. What
follows are general guidelines on writing a SIP report.
The parts included in a report depend on the type of report you are writing, the requirements
of your audience, the organization in which you have done your SIP, and the length of your
report. In a generalized sense, an ideal SIP report should cover the following elements:
i) Cover.
iii) Authorisation.
iv) Acknowledgments.
v) Table of Contents.
viii) Introduction.
15
i) Cover: This is the first page of the report. It should contain the title of the report,
name(s) of the author(s), name of the organization in which the SIP was done. The
format of this page is given below and should be adhered to. No logo of the company
should appear as this might violate copyright/trademark privileges of the company.

ii) Title Page: This element may contain the following information:
a) Title of the report.
b) Name of the author.
c) Name of the Authority for which the report was written.
d) Date of submission.
REPORT

iii) Authorisation: This indicates the person or the department which authorised the
making of the report. It also includes the Authorization Form.
For example:
iv) Acknowledgments: There are many persons who may have helped you during the
course of your SIP. It is your obligation to acknowledge and thank them for their help.
Customarily, thanks are due to the following persons in the given order.
c) Faculty Guide
d) Others.
v) Table of Contents: The main function of this element is to give the reader an overall
view of the report. The main divisions as well as the subdivisions should be listed with
the number of the page on which they first appear. It helps the reader locate a particular
topic or sub-topic easily. While preparing the Table of Contents you have to bear in mind
the following points about its layout:
Leave a 1" margin on the left and a 1" margin on the right, the top and the bottom.
Write the number of the item to indicate the sequence of items. After the number,
leave three or four spaces and then type the first heading.
Leave two spaces between main headings and one space between sub-headings.
An example of a Table of Contents is given below. Observe that for numbering pages up to
‘Abstract’ lower case Roman numerals have been used and from ‘Introduction’ onwards
Arabic numerals have been used.

vi) a. Synopsis: The Synopsis provides a brief outline of the purpose of the Report,
deliverables of the SIP, and the methodology/approach of completing the SIP. It
usually covers the introduction to the specific problem of interest (Current issues,
importance and rationale for the study), objectives, methods and scope of the
proposed study. This may or may not be a part of the report. In some cases, the
synopsis is submitted to the authorities before a report/ assignment is undertaken
to ensure that the outline plan of the SIP Report or assignment is on the right lines.
c. Summary: The Summary conveys in condensed form what the report is about. The
purpose of this element is to enable the reader, to grasp the main issues of the
report quickly without having to go through the whole report. An executive
summary should be self-sufficient and intelligible, without reference to any other
part of the report. It is never intended as a substitute for the original document. But
it must contain sufficient information to allow the reader to ascertain his/her
interest.
18
vii) List of Illustrations: A separate list of illustrations is given immediately after the table
of Given below are some items, which normally form part of the attachments. These are:
(a) Calculation sheets, (b) Supplementary Details of Instructions, (c) Flow Charts,
(d) Computer Programs, (e) The Questionnaire, (f) Large Maps, (g) Samples of the Work
Done, etc.
xii) References: All references should be given in this section. Harvard style of referencing
may be followed. (Details for the same is given in Annexure VIII).
xiii) Glossary: A glossary is a list of technical words used in the report and their explanation.
However, if the number of such words is limited, they are generally explained in the
footnotes.
Whether you should include a glossary in your report will depend upon who is going to
read your report. If the reader’s field of expertise is the one to which your report relates,
there is no need for a glossary. But, if the audience is drawn from other areas, it is
advisable to give a glossary.
19
Annexure-VI
The executive summary provides an overview of the SIP work. The executive summary needs to
be in fewest words. Make sure it is self-sufficient and can be understood in isolation. Write this
towards the end of the project in about two hundred to three hundred words (i.e. not more than
a page). Use active-voice sentences with strong, enthusiastic, and proactive language. Executive
summary should be written in simple, short sentences intended to be read by an executive. The
executive summary should briefly highlight the below mentioned points.

Annexure-VIII
INTRODUCTION
Articles, research papers, reports, etc., should be written in clear English language with
grammatically correct sentences and properly spelled words. While writing these papers/
reports, we generally refer or cite different citations taken from other sources. The details of
these sources are included under ‘References’ or ‘Bibliography’. For the purpose of referencing,
different styles such as Chicago style, MLA style, APA style, Harvard style, etc., are followed by
universities, educational institutions and organisations in different countries. The Harvard style
of referencing is being followed by most of the universities and institutions worldwide. Some
guidelines related to Harvard style are given in subsequent paragraphs.
When to Cite?
When you quote directly from other sources in your text, then you:
make clear it’s a quotation (put it in quotation marks).
cite the reference in the body of your text.
include the work it comes from in the reference list.
22
When you refer indirectly to someone’s work in your text (e.g. summarizing their argument,
paraphrasing what they say, etc), then you:
make clear what you are saying is taken from another source.
cite the reference in the body of your text.
include the work it comes from in the reference list.
Please note that you should not rely too heavily on quotations, citations, paraphrases, etc., of
others’ work in work of your own. Readers of your work will be looking for evidence of your
own thoughts and conclusions, and your own answers to the questions set – but not just a
patchwork of the ideas of others.
When you draw on the work of others it should be as evidence for or against your own
conclusions, but not as a substitute for showing that you have understood, and thought about,
the resources you have looked at.

V. SECONDARY REFERENCING
It is best to quote from the original source, but sometimes you may have to quote a
source as it is quoted in another (secondary) work. Where this happens, you must make
clear in your text both the source you are quoting and the secondary source you are
quoting from. However, it is the secondary source (the one you have actually looked at)
that appears in the reference list.
Clark discusses Lewin’s work on “action research” in some detail (Clark 2000).
In this example, though Lewin is being quoted, but the reference is to the work of Clark.
Therefore, Clark appears in the reference list.
